Making that first call to a therapist takes real courage, but the rewards can be profound. I would be honored to be the one to support you in meeting your goals. I have a passion for working with adults 18+ who are struggling with depression, anxiety, panic, relationship issues, women's health, grief, trauma, self-esteem, life transitions and many other struggles. With 10+ years of counseling/social work experience, I know we can work together to build you up and support you in learning techniques to make life a little more manageable. My goal is to help you feel more in control of your lives by cultivating self-awareness, processing emotions, problem-solving, and replacing unsupportive coping skills with healthier strategies. Together we explore and identify the underlying thoughts and emotions that drive these behaviors while working at your pace.
Together we can support in gaining hope, a healthy way to manage life stress, learning new skills to improve relationships and communication, and many other skills to support you build a healthier and more vibrant life.
I am passionate about Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, trauma-informed, and many other therapy modalities. I know everyone has a unique way of thinking, learning and needs in their life. It is important to adjust your needs to best fit you. I pull from many different therapy types to find the best individualised treatment for your needs.
My approach to therapy is to use a strength based perspective, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and create an unapologetic space for you to be open with yourself. I want you to not feel the need to sugar coat anything in sessions because I truly believe transparency will open your full potential to self-discovery and personal growth.

Briana is wonderful. Today was my first session with her, but I think we hit it off great. She is very compassionate and ready to jump in with a care plan that fits my needs. I'm hopeful she can help me on this journey.
